Kawana Lab analyzes the dynamics of the overseas base system to clarify the mechanisms of power in international politics. Its specialty is U.S. overseas basing policy, and it studies U.S. bases in Japan and in Okinawa through a historical approach. Using the perspectives of international politics and security studies, the lab considers questions about bases from both abstract and concrete angles. The professor has written books such as U.S. Military Bases in Japan, The Rise and Fall of Bases, and Why Does the Base Have to Be in Okinawa?

The Suzuki Lab studies school reform and classroom reform from both the practice side and the policy side. The lab values an approach of listening to the voices of those involved in school reform and learning from the field. Building on the field of education, the lab also takes up teacher education and the nature of teachers' professional communities as research themes.
Inohara Takehiro, Professor
0 student voices
The Inohara Lab represents and analyzes decision-making problems that arise in society using mathematical frameworks. Using discrete mathematics such as logic, set theory, and graph theory, the lab turns the essence of a problem into a mathematical model. The results of the analysis are interpreted in light of the original real-world problem to obtain implications for solving it. Consensus building, conflict resolution, social networks, and social modeling are also research themes.
Murota Masao, Professor
0 student voices
The Murota Lab studies methods and environments for improving real-world education in the field of educational technology. A distinctive feature of the lab is that it turns concrete solutions into reality by developing systems and tools. The lab has developed a learning system for reflecting on mock lessons, a practice system for English speaking, and more. Research themes are set, as far as possible, based on each student's own interests.
Reiko Sato, Professor
0 student voices
The Sato Lab studies methods of language learning, focusing on the learning of Japanese as a second language. Its research themes include the cognitive processes involved in learning a second language, reading instruction, and teaching approaches such as self-regulated learning and CLIL. The lab also covers learning in collaborative learning environments, as well as the images of the Japanese language teacher and the views on teaching held by Japanese learners and teachers. The lab is also working on developing an online test that diagnoses Japanese proficiency.
Kunihiro Sakuma, Professor
0 student voices
The Sakuma Lab studies sarcopenia, the loss of muscle mass that occurs with aging. With an aging society in view, the lab aims to elucidate why muscle atrophy occurs. It also explores effective ways to reduce it, such as exercise, supplements, and dietary content. Autophagy, the cell's protein recycling system, is thought to fail with aging, causing unneeded proteins to accumulate inside skeletal muscle cells, which in turn leads to sarcopenia.
Tatsuya Yumiyama, Professor
0 student voices
The Yumiyama Lab studies religiosity and spirituality in the contemporary world. It treats this religious awareness as a cultural resource, such as trust, connections, and life education, and focuses on its potential. The lab is also interested in how the way Japanese people live has changed since the Great East Japan Earthquake, and in the awareness and practices of standing by those affected by disasters and poverty. Grounded in the sociology of religion, it deals not only with religious organizations but also with the awareness and behavior of contemporary people more broadly.
Asa Ito, Professor
0 student voices
The Ito Lab studies how the human body exists, through the lens of disability. Its fields are aesthetics and contemporary art, and it takes on areas that are hard to put into words, using words. The lab invites people who want to think together about their own senses and bodies, such as being unable to see, unable to hear, or having difficulty moving, and listens closely to their accounts.
Hironao Kaneko, Associate Professor
0 student voices
The Kaneko Lab is a rare lab at this university where students can specialize in legal studies. It covers a broad range of topics in fields that bridge technology and law, including civil law, e-commerce, and information security. Dispute resolution procedures, and dispute resolution costs such as litigation costs and attorney's fees, are also research topics. The lab also works on electronic evidence and on consumer protection amid advancing digital transformation (DX).
